From my understanding, "only" the last 2 operations need to be in max. 20µs interval. If this is the case, then I would prefer this code version: case CFI_CMDSET_INTEL_EXTENDED: /* * see errata called * "Numonyx Axcell P33/P30 Specification Update" :) */ flash_write_cmd (info, sector, 0, FLASH_CMD_READ_ID); if (!flash_isequal (info, sector, FLASH_OFFSET_PROTECT, prot)) { int flag = disable_interrupts (); unsigned short cmd; if (prot) cmd = FLASH_CMD_PROTECT_SET; else cmd = FLASH_CMD_PROTECT_CLEAR; /* * cmd must come before FLASH_CMD_PROTECT + 20us * Disable interrupts which might cause a timeout here. */ flash_write_cmd (info, sector, 0, FLASH_CMD_PROTECT); flash_write_cmd (info, sector, 0, cmd); /* re-enable interrupts if necessary */ if (flag) enable_interrupts (); } > > > + /* > > > + * see errata called > > > + * "Numonyx Axcell P33/P30 Specification > > > Update" :) + */ > > > + flash_write_cmd (info, sector, 0, > > > FLASH_CMD_READ_ID); + if (!flash_isequal (info, > > > sector, FLASH_OFFSET_PROTECT, + > > > prot)) { > > > + int flag = disable_interrupts (); > > > > Declare and assign "cmd" here please. > > > > Please change and resubmit.
